Hmm, obviously not as bad as several of the above, but personally; Kidney Stones. I drink more water now. Having a 1"x1"x4" hole missing from my back for 13 months was pretty bad too, but despite the inconvenience, it wasn't actually all that painful.
Ouch, I must have been lucky since I had my thumb LOCKED in a car door when I was a kid and they had to unlock the front door with the key and then manually unlock the backseats as cars were back then, but I suffered no damage.
Yeah, wisdom removal wasn't fun either. But I'm told that after the procedure I was having spasms like a madman from the laughing gas. I've always had nervous muscles thanks to ADHD, but that must have been awkward. Mother thought I had just come from an institution.
Ah, the IV. I've had 3 of those so far I think, and one of the removals sucked like hell. I was standing at first, and I literally fell to my knees in pain when this nurse twisted it while pulling it out.
I vaguely remember one other incident, but not enough to evaluate the pain level (I was under 4). Stomping on a red-ant hill.
Really though, everything I've experienced is nothing compared to what all of those around me must have experienced with cancer. Lost 6 family members and 2 neighbors to it so far.
